In my opinion, the Bean book was actually better. I loved Bean's character and reading about all the background stuff with him and the crawling around in the vent things and all the smart stuff he did was just awesome.

That picture is from a movie called enders game which is based on a book that goes by the same name. The main character who is a kid kills multiple older kids that bully him more and more severely. Great book and the the book after is pretty good to, not a huge fan of the ones after that.
